This year has certainly been like no other and the response and actions from our businesses and citizens alike has been inspiring and revealing of the resilience of Pitt County and its people. While the year as Chairman may have been challenging due to the Pandemic, it still provided the opportunity to work alongside our members, regularly interacting with business of all sizes, non-profits, healthcare, education and local government. In a time of change and challenge, we saw our community rally around local businesses and non-profits more than ever before. Our local educators transitioned over night from teaching as they always have to the virtual classroom. Retailers, restaurants, fitness facilities and cultural venues quickly adapted to offer social media and online sales to continue their work and retain their talented workforce. Some businesses even pivoted to producing the Personal Protective Equipment that we all needed to remain safe. No matter the challenge we face, Pitt County and its people continue to pull together and persevere.

Your gifts are providing HOPE for families, friends and colleagues, making our communities stronger and better places to live and work. And for this…we are extremely grateful. This year’s cover features Erica Thomas and her son Gray. In 2017, at the age of 29, she was diagnosed with T-Cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and her world would forever be changed.
